Omschrijving
A New York Times bestsellerThe wolf star, brightest of all in the summer sky, shines over my home ground. Alone and starving, Swift must make a choice: stay and try to eke out a desperate life on the borders of his old hunting grounds, or strike out and find a new place to call home.
"Storytelling at its best. Captures all the magic and wonder of the wild"
"Steeped in wildness and wonder"
"Like the classics written by Jack London and Michelle Paver, this is both a detailed evocation of an animal’s life and a notable exploration of courage, loneliness and family"
"Will delight and intrigue readers ... page-turning. Deserving of a place alongside Sheila Burnford’s The Incredible Journey, Jack London’s White Fang, and other classic animal adventure novels"
"Rosanne Parry evokes the Pacific Northwest with lilting, sensory-driven ambient details. Parry’s choice to have Swift narrate his own perilous journey brings an on-the-ground intimacy to the story . . . it’s a terrain she captures expertly"
"Rife with details of the myriad scents, sounds, tastes, touches, and sights in Swift's primal existence, the immediacy of his intimate, first-person, present-tense narration proves deeply moving. A sympathetic, compelling introduction to wolves from the perspective of one wolf and his memorable journey"
"Riveting and lyrical, A Wolf Called Wander is a vibrantly imagined celebration of the natural world. Don't miss this dazzling tour de force"
"A lyrical, compelling adventure celebrating the raw beauty of nature."
